Solve for M P=C+MC

$P = C + M C$

Step 1

Rewrite the equation as $C + M C = P$ .

$C + M C = P$

Step 2

Subtract $C$ from both sides of the equation.

$M C = P - C$

Step 3

Divide each term in $M C = P - C$ by $C$ and simplify.

Divide each term in $M C = P - C$ by $C$ .

$\frac{M C}{C} = \frac{P}{C} + \frac{- C}{C}$

Simplify the left side.

Cancel the common factor of $C$ .

Cancel the common factor.

$\frac{M C}{C} = \frac{P}{C} + \frac{- C}{C}$

Divide $M$ by $1$ .

$M = \frac{P}{C} + \frac{- C}{C}$

Simplify the right side.

Cancel the common factor of $C$ .

Cancel the common factor.

$M = \frac{P}{C} + \frac{- C}{C}$

Divide $- 1$ by $1$ .

$M = \frac{P}{C} - 1$
